Who needs jocks when you've got Jennifer Hudson and Amy Poehler?

That is apparently what it's all about appearing out of the White House carrying out a star-studded meeting yesterday led by White House Senior Advisor Valerie Jarrett. Its mission: Learn how to promote the Affordable Care Act.

Those types of reporters attending: Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson, Emmy nominee Amy Poehler, actors Michael Cera and Kal Penn, and reps for Oprah, Alicia Keys, and Bon Jovi.
